Il contributo analizza la dimensione del museo quale spazio di rappresentazione e orientamento della memoria collettiva, individuando le diverse forme di ricordo che allestimenti e narrazioni possono innescare, in virtù della loro capacità di evocare, ricostruire, nascondere. Le strategie espositive e museologiche vengono discusse nella loro qualità critica e interpretativa, in una prospettiva volta ad indagare la tensione tra esperienza del patrimonio e consapevolezza storica. Attraverso tre esempi curatoriali emblematici (Time is out of joint, The Shape of Time, Treasures from the wreck of the unbelievable), l’autrice confronta possibili approcci del museo nei confronti del Tempo, rilevandone l’impatto rispetto all’esperienza di visita e alla formulazione di un codice di relazione tra il pubblico e il passato.

Abstract
This contribution analyses the context of a museum as a space of representation and orientation of collective memory by exploring several strategies of memory that both museum displays and narratives can trigger, thanks to their ability to evoke, reconstruct, and hide specific meanings and processes. Museological approaches are discussed in their critical and interpretive potentials, following a perspective aimed at pointing out the tension between cultural experience and historical awareness. By considering three emblematic examples (Time is out of Joint, The Shape of Time, and Treasures from the Wreck of the Unbelievable), the author compares different attitudes of museums towards the concept of time by considering their impact on the visit experience and on the elaboration of a relationship between the public and the pasFile | Dimensione | Formato | |
